3/4" diamater shafts will definately be strong enough; especially if they are steel. Depending on the size of the pin you're putting through, aluminum should be just fine. Either way, 3/4" is kind of heavy though. I guess you don't have much of a choice w/ the current interface with the dewalts though.
